Gorgeous colour contrasts. I think it looks nicely balanced too.

Other than the subject (tombs and new blossoms, how symbolic), this is a wonderful colour composition. If you would just crop the top of the picture so that corner of background doesn't intrude, it would be perfect!

I've been there, in fact, I'm originaly from there! lol! I loved the feeling you get at that cemetary. Most cemetaries give me the creeps, but the Arlington National Cemetary gives me a sense of pride. Makes me feel like "I'm safer because these men lost their lives for this country." I feel overwhelmed with respect and gratitude. The wall however, I can't get past it without crying a stream and a half. lol!

Wow. That does look pretty there. I would go there, but I have a thing for cemetaries. No phobias or anything, it just feels like there is more than me and whoever else is with me is there too.

Great shot. A simple border would do it wonders! :)
